ACHILLES Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Sutton local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three ACHILLES sales between December 2000 and April 2014 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the April 2004 sale was for 37% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 37% below the HPI over time, until the April 2014 sale, where it rises to 29% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 29% below the HPI.

What might ACHILLES be worth now?

ACHILLES might now be worth an estimated £704,802.

This is based on house price inflation of 60.2%, between April 2014 and December 2024, for detached houses, in the Sutton local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 60.2% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for ACHILLES of £440,000 on 29th April 2014. For the value to have increased from £440,000 to £704,802 over the nine years and four months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of ACHILLES has moved in line with the HPI for detached houses in the Sutton local authority area.
• The April 2014 sale price of £440,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of ACHILLES has not materially changed since April 2014.
